Glad to see that wealth trickling down and the job creators are doing what they promised with our tax dollars.

Apparently free education and debt forgiveness, and everyone having good medical coverage is socialism we cannot afford, but giving tax money directly (like in the article) or indirectly (sure, pull some spreadsheet magic and pay zero taxes this quarter!) to companies is certainly something different that is easily afforded! /s

Obviously, the tax cut wasn't large enough. Keep cutting taxes until we give corporations money just for existing. Then, they'll have enough money to create jobs. Until then, they'll only have enough for their poor, underpaid executives.

Gosh. I would love to have some presidential election debate where a candidate rubs it in his face. “So, President Trump, why did big corps X, Y, and Z decrease their investments and jobs when your policies were supposed to do the opposite?”

"They didn't. I am the greatest business man ever. Many people are saying America is doing great things. Your an unhinged socialist who wants to steal. <Insert ethnic slur here> Best economy ever. America is the best internet in the world."

First, we need a candidate capable of debating. The problem is, Trump and Co will point at the jobs report, the stock market, the Dow, etc... and say "see?".

Mind you, none of the above translates into benefits to workers. Most workers don't own stock. Most workers never saw a tax cut. Most workers haven't seen their wages grow. And, where growth occurred, it was the result of Democrats pushing minimum wage increases. Unfortunately, there aren't many candidates who can articulate this point to the average voter.

What the earnest Free Market Capitalist types always fail to consider is that by weakening the market regulator, you just end up with regulatory capture and duopolies. You never get to the Competitive Creative Destruction Free Market Capitalism promised land. Thus, we get absurd arguments like, "Well, this isn't capitalism, this is cronyism. If we could only deregulate and cut the government some more..."

If you have got gigabit cable you will always be better off with that even with 20-30ms latency. Starlink is for people in rural areas who can't get a fixed line connection or have a decent fixed wireless option.
